Celtic have set up a Scottish Cup final meeting with Inverness Caledonian Thistle after Jota’s first-half header was enough to settle a tense Old Firm encounter against Rangers at Hampden Park.

The defending cup holders must now face up to a season without a trophy. Here, we take a look at the story of the semi-final tie through the camera lense:
